Did you know that building your confidence starts at home?
A big part of happiness and success lies in self-confidence, which means believing in your own capabilities. There are a number of factors which influence how you develop your confidence. But one important factor is your environment at home.
Here are some ways on how you can build your confidence at home:
1. Share your thoughts and feelings
Being able to share what you think and feel to anyone gives you an opportunity to be heard. Whether it’s with your parents or your siblings, sharing your thoughts will make them appreciate your outlook on different matters. Also try making eye contact when you share something to show them how confident you are!

2. Celebrate little achievements
Even a task as simple as tidying up your bed, cleaning your room, or helping your mom fix the groceries in your cupboard, these little moments should be celebrated. Acknowledging your effort in doing activities independently and helping out others allows you to feel a sense of achievement.

3. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes
Explore something new, like a new hobby or an exercise routine. Always be open in learning new things. Though there’s always the possibility of making mistakes in experimenting, exploring new things leads to more learning and confidence.

4. Believe in yourself!
Acknowledging your achievements is one thing; but in order to start achieving anything, the first step you need to do is to believe in yourself. This gives you the necessary push to try an activity and to achieve more than what you have accomplished. Of course, your confidence is developed once you believe in yourself; but at the same time, you become more used to acknowledging your efforts.

Remember that once you have developed confidence in yourself, the more you become motivated in reaching your goals. So start developing the right level of confidence at home!
